MOSS 2007 VS MCMS 2002

  • [アーティクル]

As you may already knew that Microsoft discarded its Content Management product line and make its new SharePoint product as the content management platform. Almost all MCMS elements and terms that current MCMS developers familiar with are changed. To make me learn the new things easier, I did a comparison in following list:

MCMS 2002

Sharepoint 2007

Development Tools

Visual Studio 2003, Visual Studio 2005

Visual Studio 2005, Sharepoint Designer

Framework

.NET 1.1, .NET 2.0

.Net 2.0

Master file

Supported in SP2 and developed by VS 2005. The master file stays in the virtual directory of web server.

Master file can be created by Sharepoint Designer and VS 2005. But the master file is a ghost page need to be uploaded via Sharepoint admin page.

Template

CMS Template. It’s stored in template gallery. It contains list of placeholders, list of custom properties and links to a template page (aspx file)

Content Type. Content Type contains a list of columns.

Template page

An aspx page stays on file system.

Page Layout. Created based on the Content Type. Aspx file but stays on Sharepoint server, it’s editable by Sharepoint Designer and VS 2005.

Content place holder

Placeholder. CMS has some build-in placeholders such as html placeholder, xml placeholder, image placeholder and attachment placeholder

Column / Filed. Sharepoint 2007 has more types like single line text, numeric, date, time, currency, html, picture, attachment file… I couldn’t find the xml type which is very useful in current MCMS 2002. But there are a lot other useful column types like lookup, business data …

Place holder control

The build-in placeholder web control used in template aspx page for content editing in authoring mode and content rendering in publishing mode is in Microsoft.ContentManagement.Publishing.Extension.Placholders

You are also be able to create your own custom web controls.

Sharepoint 2007 also has many web controls for content editing and rendering. They are in Microsoft. Sharepoint.Publishing. Those controls are automatically added to the page layout aspx when drag the fields in Sharepoint Designer.

I believed you are able to create the custom controls and add to your own page as well.

Page

Posting. Posting will be able to be created and managed in web interface. The posting is stored in CMS database.

Page. Page can be created in Sharepoint admin web UI based on the selected page layout. You are able to use Sharpoint designer to unghost (customize) the page.

Folder

Channel. It’s just a simple container contains a set of postings.

Site. It should be an WSS site including a set of lists, doc libraries and other contents.

Resource

Resource gallery. No versioning support

Document library, picture library … support versioning

Publishing workflow

Build-in workflow. No alert, hard to customize

Based on Windows workflow framework, very flexible.

Security

Windows AD account only. Only control to channel level

Can control to page level, support AD account, LDAP, and database.

Versions

Simple

Very good

Sharepoint 2007 also includes other benefits which you couldn’t find in MCMS 2002 out-of-box. For example: the out-of-box navigation bar support, search functions, personalization and user profiles…
